Chuck Todd Shows He's Out Of Touch On Iraq

On June 17, 2008, M S N B C debuted a new MoveOn.org ad that rightly pointed out the human costs of the Iraq war - making clear that the troops over in Iraq are some mother's baby. Chuck Todd showed himself to be completely out of touch on this issue.

4000+ already snuffed. But they aren't your kids. So keep up with the bluster.

Hundreds of thousands of Iraqis too.

I always knew Chuck Todd was a miserable piece of shit, and this just proves it.

"Hi, I'm baby Alex. My mommy won't let me go into the military when I'm 18 because she loathes war. When military recruiters tried to kidnap me and draft me into action, she bravely stepped in and SAVED ME, like has since the day I was born. I've always been mommy's little eunuch and I will always be mommy's little eunuch. I will never be allowed to do anything in life she doesn't approve of!"

That mother is the personification of the Pink Floyd song "Mother."

Uh... I think you meant to call him a "moron"? Calling someone a moron and misspelling the word "moron" when you do so is kind of ineffective.

How does this prove Chuck Todd is out of touch? I don't care if you are for withdrawing from Iraq or not, that ad was shameless garbage appealing purely to emotion with no basis in fact or reason. Election time is silly season. People should think for themselves rather than signing on to deceitful propaganda that happens to support a position they agree with.

Why doesn't this mother allow her son to decide for himself whether he wants to serve his country or not? Alex is her son, not her slave.

LOL I don't hate you for being a trekkie I just find it amusing that your using star trek to argue American Politics and expecting to be taken seriously. If anyone is showing hatred and intolerance for other peoples views its you.

I encourage you to keep posting hateful rhetoric all over youtube, post as much as possible.

Use the most hateful terms you can think of. Broadbrush people and insult them constantly, please.

You seem to think that will win hearts and minds, well be my guest, pal.

I'm sure you will continue instead to blindly drive Republicans into the depths of permanent minority status.

Thank you!

Keep up the great, awesome work here on youtube.I hear Jeff Gannon has some talking points for you.

So the stone age is where you belong, because that is where the Republican party is headed.

It's not just the economy, stupid, this time. It's the ideology, stupid. That's what working class people are concerned about. The familiar right wing language righties use has not made America a better place.

It is the Democrats who are taking America to a better place now, you people had your chance.

I fully expect most Americans to have a distaste for right wing rhetoric for some time.

[jaysonnitro]

Once again you prove your ignorance with a mischaracterization of me.

It is fairly easy to see that many years of right wing policy has broken our country.

The last laugh will be the Liberals who are going to have a long majority in Congress, the Senate, and the Presidency, because of the behavior of people like you, AboriusOwns.

You don't have to be a trekkie to see that, and fortunately for America, average Americans are sick to death of the hateful rhetoric.

Keep posting please.

Being criticized by a trekie has made my day. I can just imagine you living in your moms basement. I bet you have d&d dice in a leather pouch under your pillow and a light saber next to your bed. You should learn to separate your fantasy life from reality. I know thats asking a lot from a liberal especially a 44 year old trekie.

[jaysonnitro]

Holy crap! Anyone wondering why Republicans are losing just needs to read this screed.

I suggest blocking this guy. What a moran!

Thank you ArboriusOwns for telling us what we've all heard over and over and over and over and over and over and over.

You righties are like the freakin borg.

"Debate is irrelevant"

"Prepare to be assimilated"

You can quote me on this AboriusOwns

"Republicans are talking point repeating losers"
